Favorite Walk: the beach in north myrtle beach, south carolina
Best Tricks: reading our minds, telling the time, keeping us on our schedule, formerly a frisbee champion who entertained countless beach guests as they watched her work her frisbee magic
Arrival Story: We purchased Elsa at 8 weeks from a local breeder. We found out about her when we made some random calls after the passing of our husky/keeshond mix, Chelsea.
Bio: Elsa's pedigree is rich in field labrador accomplishments.
Her mom and dad were master field champions. Elsa was a twin. Fuzz B was her nickname before we added her to our family. All of her life she had an insatiable retrieving instinct.
A very friendly, focused, highly intelligent dog she has many, many friends canine and human alike. This dog is pure sweetness. In her older years she has become almost entirely deaf and we use signing to direct her. Her strength and will to
bear the burdens of severe scoliosis is legendary in our
neighborhood. She will not give in nor give up. Her love of
her life and family is keeping her strong. Thru her good days and bad she remains our amazing friend. She has taught us
the profound lesson of always looking on the bright side no matter what the day may bring.

Awards: Congratulations to me!! Dogster Diary Pick of the Day!!
Today marks one year since you left us for the rainbow bridge.
How hard and awlful it was to watch your steady decline until there was no more waiting. You didn't deserve to remain unable to walk steady, enjoy your family, food and surroundings. It was time.
I will never forget that day. Your eyes, your ever wagging tail.
I know you were trying to send comfort to us. Oh, we were torn apart.
Life without you has forever changed our family dynamics. You were such a large part of who we were. How we spent our days. I am still always looking, feeling you there. What a comfort you were. I can still feel that soft head and see those soulful brown eyes watching my every more. What next, Mom???
You are doing a grand job of watching over us from the bridge.
It has been a wonderful year.
Thank u for the beautiful baby lab, Tallulah, who you selected just for us. She came to us on angels wings and she is marked by you with angel wings.
I truly believe you wanted to send me many smiles to highlight my days and Tulah does provide.
At the same time - your old mom is getting old - and at 50 not the
spry 30 year old who ran with you. So, don't forget this when you
guide this little one into her adult hood. She is a complete handful.
We love her antics. She can take you from 0 to 100 miles an hour in a second. Sometimes she causes laughter and others tears but she is destined to be a gem, I just know it.
Today we celebrate your angel day here at the beach, Tulah and I and Pavorotti. Dad, Melissa and Pumpkin are at home. Sorry to cause you to watch over two places but in my heart I know you are anywhere we need you to be for us.
My heart is heavy with missing your physical presence and warm face today.
Thank u for 15 wonderful years of friendship. My beautiful girl, Elsa.
We are here today at this beach in this town because of you.
You are forever a part of this family and we miss you more than a mere word could ever convey.
Hello My Elsa,
Feels like just yesterday you were here with me. Not doing well, becoming weaker and sleepy. Your time was near.
One year.
One day.
What's the difference - you are gone.
I do know that you are with Tulah and I. Watching over us here at the beach. Tulah is a pistol, isn't she? I know you wanted to send me somebody who would make me laugh. And you did. You are proud of her, I know.
You have saved her more than once so far in her 8 months of life and it probably won't be the last.
We are thinking of you Elsa. Your name comes up many times per day.
Many times.
I see that you are enjoying a wonderful time at the beach.
The family had a great time and the dogs did too.
I was watching over you and sending rainbows your way.
I was there the night on the beach that Phil proposed to my Melissa.
I showered them with angel dustings and I even polished that beautiful new ring with angel polish. Melissa loves how it sparkles.
That is me shining down on you Melissa!
Remember mom that I am with you always.
Keep a strong reign on that Tulah. I see she jumped into the lake
again yesterday after the ducks. She is a funny one!
